Morrison, his older brother, Clyde, and their ffrst cousin, Stan Lewis, were more than happy to talk about the drag racing business to anyone who had a question. Kids even got to climb into the parked car to get a feel of what Morrison experiences each time he takes (o the track. "I need a fake leg so that I ean push it," one young boy said after discovering that his own limbs were not long enough to reach the car's gas pedal. All kidding aside, the Morrisons' visit to Winston Salem had a serious goal. It was orchestrated by the lodge, Marcallus Sunday (a member of the lodge) and LaShun Huntley, both of whom mentor ?young people through several different programs. "It takes so many different people to make that car run," said Sunday. "There are nine different jobs for this one car. We want the kids to see that they can learn these jobs in trade school and have a career." Racing was never really an option for the Morrison fami ly; it's in their blood. Dap and Clyde's father was an avid rac ing fan . The boys have been on tracks and around cars for as long as they can remember. It takes a family effort to keep their car on the track. The love and support is all well and good, but the dollars from the coffers of various kin are just as vital. It costs between $10,000 and $20,000 a season to keep a car in competition shape (and that's not counting the cost of fender-benders). Lewis, who owns and operates a Greensboro-based franchise of Anago Cleaning Systems, is the main sponsor of the car. Clyde Morrison, owner of his own carpentry company, and day care owner Dap Morrison also contribute financially. Lewis' company cleans the building in which Sunday works. After the two met, Lewis enthusiastically agreed to do whatever he could to help Huntley's and Sunday's DASH from page A7 diabetes or kidney disease, blood pressure of less than 130/80 is recommended. - .

Sunday and Huntley don't plan to shake the racing theme anytime soon. Trips for young people to Winston-Salem State University and N.C. A&T State University, both of which have ambitious racing pro grams. are planned. As is a visit to the Mooresvrlle, the mecca of auto racing. Sunday eventually wants to take a group of young people to a NASCAR race. He hopes that all of it will show them that just like there is no limit to the speed on the track, their lives are also limitless.
